What did you do this weekend?!


Hey gang! How have you been this weekend?
What did ya guys and gals do?

I've been meaning to go back to Resident Evil 5. Well, to finally finish it, but I'm never motivated enough (plus playing it solo is really boring/awful). And I really wanted to have it done to finally put that final RE review out as well.

So instead I started playing the pretty bad Deadly Premonitions instead, which turned out pretty epic!
The gameplay's clunky, the story bad, the acting nonsensical and the graphics "last gen", but it's the sums of all these parts that really make this experience worthwhile!
Destructoids gave it 10/10. I'd call it "Game of the Century!"


Playing Deadly Premonitions is fun, but it's a huuuuge and very slow game so it's gonna take me easily over 20 or more hours to finish it. That's why I play it on small doses every now and then.

Meanwhile, I've also been playing other stuff, like some Star Wars games I've yet to complete.
And I've finally finished Prince of Persia Forgotten Sands!
Expect the review coming up one of these days!
I started disliking the whole game and concept behind it..but in the end, I gotta tell ya, I sort of liked it. Not great mind you, but good enough^^


I've been watching plenty of Studio Ghibli movies.. (well, all of them to be precise!)
On a suggestion by my brother, I watched this weekend another anime, the immensely popular Paprika.
Usually I'm not a big fan of modern animes, but I really digged the look of this one.
It sort of ended in an "Evangelion-like" climatic ending. But much more comprehensible. (kinda funny saying that, considering most of Paprika is quite complicated and ambigous...)

Great flick!


And that is all I guess~
And ya?

  2. I wanted to go see Harry Potter and/or Captain America. But I was short on money this weekend. Didn't really do a whole lot. Played a lot of World of Warcraft. Watched some Castle and Star Trek: The Next Generation. My wife was sick and I wasn't feeling to good either, so we just kinda hung out at home.
